(update with how force decreases)

The initial force and damage will only apply to the epicenter; as the explosion travels, the force will decrease depending on the number of adjacent cells and the total weight of the object that was already hit. The explosion cannot spread to cells it has already hit in the same explosion. The cell calls this specific formula; that cell then spawns cells with weaker force that will call it again, repeating recursively until the force tapers out at 100 or lower:

If this force is greater than the target's weight and bonus from anchoring, the target will be forcefully pushed a random direction. Explosions happen from the center outwards, so if a creature is within the center of the blast, they will be continue to be pushed away until the explosion ends. The damage calculation only happens once.
